They're the best. They just are. They're sketch comics that are worshiped by any sketch comic that sees them. Can't wait for the new show.

Dear Alison,

How does recording live theater make it unfunny and irrelevant? What in the process is lost? I am honestly confused by this.

Whenever I've tried to illustrate the funniness of an act by showing a video of live performance, I have failed. Example:

Seems dumb. But I've seen it, and it's funny! Live performance is meant to be experienced live.
